Insulin resistance

problem with your body that causes blood glucose meaning sugar level to rise higher than normal. Everyone has insulin in their body but when you have type 2 diabetes your body does not use insulin the properly way it was supposed to work in our system. If people were more inform about the sign and symptoms people…

into two separate types. Type one diabetes is caused by the lack or insufficient production of the hormone insulin. Type two diabetes is caused by insulin resistance. There is now a way to determine whether a patient may be on the verge of developing type two diabetes. This is known as prediabetes. Prediabetes is linked to diabetes type two due to the fact that diabetes type two is an insulin resistant disorder and usually arises from poor diet and obesity. It may also be referred to as…

families to grow closer as they care for their loved ones with this challenging disease. There are two different types of diabetes and they are called Type 1 and Type 2.

starches which is found in many foods. These three items turn into what is known as glucose (a form of sugar) that eventually enters the blood stream. Everyone also has what is known as insulin in their body, this insulin helps cells within the body, absorb this glucose. Diabetes will show up when the insulin is not being produced within the body at all…

the topic of Type II diabetes, also known as Insulin Resistance. Type II Diabetes is a global health crisis and an epidemic that has spread throughout the world. While some genetic factors can increase the risk of developing Type II diabetes, this disease is usually fueled by poor eating habits and a sedentary lifestyle. Type 2 diabetes impairs the body cells’ ability to respond to insulin and utilize glucose in the blood. A cell becoming insulin resistance and failure to carryout glucose…

metabolic syndrome many organs are affected due to malnutrition, stress and inactivity. With all these factors playing a part the body has different ways of trying to protect it self, that in turn can cause more harm than good. Abdominal obesity, insulin resistant, hypertension, and chronic cortisol release are results of the factors which contribute to metabolic syndrome. Abdominal Obesity A high consumption of calorie dense food and lack of physical activity are contributes to obesity.…

Under normal circumstances, as blood sugar level increases, insulin will be released from the beta cells in the pancreas in order to process glucose. More specifically, insulin will promote glucose uptake by splanchnic and peripheral tissues, and will suppress endogenous production of glucose (Boada & Martinez-Moreno, 2013). Additionally, insulin will inhibit the secretion of glucagon, which has key a role in increasing blood glucose by signaling the…

not produce any of its own insulin for use by the body, (at first the pancreas makes more insulin to try to get glucose into the cells but gradually loses its ability to produce) thereby the person does not receive insulin from outside source, he may develop a fatal condition, the type 1 patient for all future time need insulin from outside source to alive (Diabetes Care and Patient Education, 2013). Type 2 diabetes generally common form of diabetes, called non-insulin-dependent diabetes…

Researchers believe that insulin levels in the blood may also be linked to PCOS. Insulin is another hormone that the human body produces. This hormone is used to regulations how sugar is used or stored. The bodies of women with PCOS do not adequately convert sugar into energy. Instead, it is stored as fat. This causes obesity or weight gain. Too much insulin also increases the production of the androgens. The ovaries of women with PCOS…

with it. Type 2 is most commonly developed over time with poor diet and exercise. Type 1 injects insulin medicine because their body stops producing the natural insulin, substitute of a hormone form the pancreas, to control blood sugar. Type 2 is where the body still produces insulin naturally, but not enough to help control blood sugar. Some Type 2 to diabetics take insulin, but most start taking insulin until seven years after diagnosed. 95% of the people who do have diabetes, have Type 2.…
